Extractions: Aida Yasuaki studied under the mathematician Yasuyuki Okazaki in Yamagata from the age of 15 years. The city of Yamagata in which Aida was born and brought up was (and still is) situated in northern Honshu, Japan nearly 300 km north of present day Tokyo. In 1769, Aida went to Edo, which has been renamed Tokyo. There Aida worked for the shogunate of Tokugawa Ieharu. The shogunate was the government of the shogun, or hereditary military dictator, of Japan and this type of rule lasted from 1192 to 1867. The third shogunate in Japan was established in 1603 ruling from Edo. The shogunate was extremely powerful, controlling the emperor, controlling the religious establishments, administering the lands and forming foreign policy. Aida was employed by the shogunate as a civil engineer working on river control and irrigation systems around Edo. However, this was not the job that Aida aimed for since ever since he was young his aim had been to become the best mathematician in Japan. Also working for the same shogunate at this time was Teirei Kamiya, a mathematician who had been a pupil of Sadasuke Fujita. Aida would have liked to become a pupil of Fujita, for he was one of the leading mathematicians in Japan. Aida saw his friendship with Kamiya as means to be accepted by Fujita and asked Kamiya to arrange for him to be introduced to Fujita. Indeed Kamiya organised the necessary introductions but Aida was not accepted by Fujita.

Then he went to Edo where he worked as a civil engineer but he hoped to become the best mathematician in Japan. Aida wanted to become a pupil of Fujita but he was not accepted. A private feud started which eventually turned into a public feud between the Seki school of mathematics and the Sijyo school. Aida compiled Sampo tensi shinan (1788), a book of geometry problems, developing formulas for ellipses, spheres, circles etc. He explained the use of algebraic expressions and the construction of equations. He also worked on number theory and simplified continued fraction methods due to Seki Reference (One book/article) Previous (Chronologically) Next Biographies Index
